The Darkness... Expect one hell of a gorefest with an innovative story and superb voice acting!
Boy was I wrong, The Darkness turned out to be a free-roam masterpiece with a really innovative story, awesome characters, great settings, cool adult themes and the best voice acting in a game that I have seen in along time!.
Gameplay:
- O.k so the gameplay at first didn't seem to original and for the most part the weaponry and shooting was unoriginal and not that revolutionary but when it comes to combining the powers you slowly gain with the standard FPS that's where the fun begins and truly brings out the best of the gameplay and what sort of effort should be put into all FPS.
Graphics:
- The graphics were quite nice, there were some minor frame rate issues I did notice but for the most part the graphics were very nice and some of the best seen on the 360 to date.
Sound:
- This game has the best voice acting and soundtrack I have heard in a very long time. Mike Patton as "The Darkness" was just the most perfect choice and I could not imagine anyone else doing a more superb and perfect job. Concerning the music in general it was very cool and well suited, at times it almost made me feel I was in a dark modern day version of "Oblivion" which was really nice.
Value/Tilt:
- The game is a must buy for 360/PS3 owners and the best horror genre game to come out for the 360 since "Condemned" so stop reading my review if you don't have it already and go grab yourself a copy and get ready for a truly decent "Current-Gen" game!
